generic error

[pvt. partz 248]

I am getting this message in my .rpt and I'm stumped. The mission won't finish loading because of it. I'll post the error but I don't what if anything else is needed to find the answer. I am hoping it's just a typo.

.rpt message =

 

 

20:40:45 Error in expression <count _chars) - 1) do
{
_item = _chars select _ia;

if (isClass _item) then
{
>
20:40:45   Error position: <select _ia;

if (isClass _item) then
{
>
20:40:45   Error Generic error in expression

 

Here is the same lines from the mission file

my file=

 

    for "_ia" from 0 to ((count _chars) - 1) do
        {
        _item = _chars select _ia;
        
        if (isClass _item) then
            {
            _types set [(count _types),getText(_item >> "vehicle")];
            _ranks set [(count _ranks),getText(_item >> "rank")];
            
            if (_ia > 0) then
                {
                _safePos = [_pos,0,160,10,0,4,0] call BIS_fnc_findSafePos;
                _rP = [(_safePos select 0) - (_pos select 0),(_safePos select 1) - (_pos select 1),0.5];
                _positions pushBack _rP
                }
            };
        };

 

Thanks for helping

Is _chars an array? Obviously it's intended to be, but it might be worth systemChat-ing it to see what it comes out as. I think a non-array used with select will give that error.

[pierremgi 4927]

isClass is waiting for a config like: configFile >> "CfgVehicles" , not a config class like "B_APC_Tracked_01_rcws_F",

(First format is a config, second one is a string).

If _chars is an array of vehicle classes (so strings), try:

isClass (configFile >> "cfgVehicles" >> _item)

 

That's for the principle. On the other hand, I don't know where you are going to with "vehicle" and "rank"... You need to refer to some existing token, like "vehicleClass" or "displayName", "hiddenSelections".... as listed in config viewer.
